Bridge construction can have significant impacts on a community, including rerouted traffic, urban congestion, and construction costs, leading many communities to look for ways to shorten construction schedules. Precast concrete components are an ideal solution for accelerated bridge construction. County Prestress & Precast utilizes climate-controlled production facilities across the Midwest to produce prestressed concrete bridge girders all year long.
Prestressed concrete components are preferred for their inherent efficiency. Components are manufactured to specification and delivered ready for installation. Concrete bridge girders can be manufactured, delivered, and installed every month of the year.
Our prestressed concrete bridge girders were selected to rebuild the Racine Street Bridge because girders are produced off-site, year-round and shipped ready for installation. The new bridge increased vertical clearance for passing boats and improved traffic flow. County Prestress & Precast manufactured and delivered 28 153-foot-long girders for the project, which took place during the winter months. Working with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, our skilled team coordinated efficient delivery times to reopen the bridge for local residents with minimal delay.
Additionally, the Main Street Bridge project in Rice Lake, Wisconsin, relied on County Prestress & Precast’s temperature-regulated, indoor facility to continue production during harsh winter weather conditions.
Communities across the nation rely on our bridge girders to accelerate construction, minimize road closures, and reduce project costs in every season. Our responsive team is committed to meeting the demands of every project with exceptional service.
